Roots & Shoots Support program

Roots & shoots: Planting opportunity, growing connection

At Into the Woods Forest School, we believe that community can make positive impacts and that children deserve the chance to grow through meaningful time in nature. Our Roots & shoots Fundraising Program helps make this possible by supporting a small handful of children each season whose families face financial barriers to tuition.

Roots & shoots exists to help alleviate some of the financial burden associated with program fees. Through this program, we are able to partially sponsor ( 25 -50 % off enrolment fees ) so they can explore, learn, and thrive outdoors alongside their peers.

We invite individuals, families, and businesses who share our vision for nature-based education to join us in strengthening this work. Your support directly helps expand access to forest school experiences for children in our community.

Donations to Roots & shoots may include financial contributions or other outdoor gear , all of which go directly toward supporting program accessibility and enriching children’s experiences in nature.

Together, we can help more children put down Roots—building confidence, connection, and a lifelong relationship with the natural world.

** The amount of families that we can assist will vary depending of support of this program each season

*** If you require some financial assistance, please reach out as perhaps there is an exchange or trade opportunity that will work for all of us.
